🛠 About the Product / Function

This classic biscuit tin features warm yellow colouring with a lighter diamond pattern and a green lower band. Around the tin is a vibrant illustration of six clusters of nasturtiums in green, red and yellow. A matching floral wreath decorates the lid, completing the design.

The loose-fit lid closes well, making the tin suitable for storage, display or adding to a vintage collection. The folded vertical seam at the back reflects traditional tin craftsmanship.
